The BGS was commissioned by the Public Health England to undertake sampling of properties in Cornwall served by private water supplies to assess exposure to arsenic.
Weathering is the wearing down or breaking of rocks while they are in place.
This cluster does research to identify, measure and quantify complex geological and environmental processes essential in the efficient utilisation of natural resources and underground spaces.
The BGS Hydrate and Ices Laboratory is a specialised facility used to study the behaviour of gas hydrates within sediments.
Undisturbed sampling offers the potential for geological characterisation critical for understanding engineering performance and ground behaviour.
The R&D Engineering Facility conceptualises, designs, tests and manufactures unique and novel equipment for BGS research.
